I don’t see any fear mongering. Mostly people telling their experiences. I have entered 10-15+ times on my DTV. First time I had issue was last week, but I am confident it had to do with coming from Cambodia and nothing to do with the DTV.

Why don’t you want Vietnam?

They tell you to apply 4-8 weeks in advance. You didn’t apply early.

- I didn’t see one, but I rushed to the priority line.

Anonymous participant 418 - what do you mean? I literally wanted to use the vip/fast track service, so I don’t wait in line. I paid the fee online 2 days in advance, but the company called and told us that Immigration told them that travelers from Cambodia are no longer eligible for fast track services. So instead we used the priority lane because we flew business class. I also have the DTV visa which is a multi entry visa,

- You are so silly. How about husband. And yes, the IO turned on the red light to send me away. The IO at the next booth spoke out to my partner telling HIM to move to another line. He didn’t realize that the other IO was talking to him, so I waved to him to inform him that the IO in the next line was trying to talk to him and have him move. My IO, realizing I am communicating with the Thai next in line then asked if I was traveling alone and I said no, he is my partner. IO then waved him up. They proceed to talk for 3-5 minutes, as if I am not there. IO flips the light back from red to green and stamps me in. I then move along. Once at baggage, I ask what was said and my partner informs me. So yes, clearly the IO was unwilling to communicate with me any longer but literally spoke to my partner back and forth for a long time and changed his mind. I don’t know why you have an issue with my responses, but I do see it is your MO, attack everyone online

Never said that this is a must for all people, just said it was central in my case. Furthermore, did I ever say I have a Thai girlfriend?

Anonymous participant Honestly, I have no idea. I have entered Thailand on DTV multiple times, like many others and up until now, never had an issue. This issue had nothing to do win the visa and everything to do with them not liking farang having spent time in Cambodia, like somehow we are supporting their enemy. I was basically told not to go back to Cambodia and that I wouldn’t have a problem entering if I was coming from somewhere else next time (have work trips to Philippines and Indonesia in Feb).
